Private Jet Beirut to Alexandria

At just 330 nautical miles, Beirut to Alexandria is among the shortest sectors in this network, a brief hop across the Eastern Mediterranean linking Lebanon’s capital with Egypt’s principal port city. Given the modest distance, a light jet such as the Phenom 300 or Citation CJ4, or a turboprop like the Pilatus PC-12 for smaller parties and shorter runways, is entirely sufficient, with the flight taking well under an hour at a cruise altitude typically in the high 30,000s. Beirut-Rafic Hariri International Airport serves as the departure point, Lebanon’s principal gateway and a long-established hub for Eastern Mediterranean private aviation. Arrival in Alexandria brings travellers from Beirut’s mountain-backed coastline to Egypt’s own historic Mediterranean waterfront, where the Corniche stretches for miles, the Qaitbay Citadel occupies the site of the ancient Pharos lighthouse, and the Bibliotheca Alexandrina revives the memory of the city’s legendary classical library. Both cities share centuries of Phoenician, Greek, Roman and Ottoman influence, giving this short sector a genuine sense of connecting two ends of the same ancient Mediterranean world. This route suits business travellers and private clients moving quickly between Beirut and Alexandria for meetings, family visits or short leisure breaks, with the brevity of the flight making it a practical option even for a same-day return. Brokers should confirm current overflight permissions across Cyprus or Israeli airspace, depending on the routing used, and slot availability at Borg El Arab International Airport is rarely a constraint given the short notice typically required for a sector of this length.
